1. If you approach a traffic light with a red signal and a police officer directs you to go through the intersection without stopping, you should:

Stop until the light turns green.

Go through the intersection without stopping.

Come to a complete stop before proceeding.

Instructions given by police officers directing traffic always override posted traffic signals and signs. Follow the officer's instructions.

2. If you are getting tired while driving, you should:

Stop and either get rest or change drivers.

Drink something with caffeine.

Open a window.

To avoid the dangers of fatigued driving, take breaks every hour or so during a long trip. If possible, share driving responsibilities with another person so you can each sleep while the other person drives.

3. It is more dangerous to drive at night than during the day because:

You cannot see as far ahead at night.

The road is always more slippery at night.

Your reaction time is slower at night.

With decreased visibility and the glare of oncoming headlights, you cannot see as far ahead at night as you can during the day. Always use headlights and exercise caution when driving in the dark.

4. Prior to entering a curve:

Activate your turn signal.

Reduce your speed.

Brake hard.

You may drive more slowly than the posted speed limit, based on road conditions, but it is illegal to drive any faster than the posted speed limit. Some conditions which require reduced speed for safety include approaching curves or hills where visibility is limited, driving on slippery roads, and driving on roads where animals and pedestrians are present.

5. The best way to avoid a dangerous situation while driving is to:

Know what is happening around your vehicle.

Turn off the radio.

Always keep your eyes focused ahead of your car.

Always be aware of what is happening around your vehicle. Constantly observing your surroundings to the front, sides, and rear of your vehicle will help you see problems that may require you to change speed or roadway position.

6. A solid yellow arrow on a traffic signal means:

You should speed up so you can make the turn before the light changes.

You do not need to signal to turn from the indicated lane.

You should prepare to stop and yield the right-of-way to oncoming traffic.

A solid yellow arrow means that the protection of a green arrow is ending. If you are turning in the direction of the arrow, you should prepare to stop and yield the right-of-way to oncoming traffic before turning.

7. If you are about to be hit from the rear, you should consider each of the following, except for:

Applying your brakes.

Letting go of the steering wheel.

Pressing your head firmly against the head restraint.

If your vehicle is hit from the rear while you are in forward motion, your body will be thrown backward. Press yourself against the back of your seat and put your head against the head restraint to prevent whiplash. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel and be ready to apply your brakes to avoid being pushed into another vehicle.

8. Before returning to your original lane after passing another vehicle, you should:

Beep your horn.

See both headlights of the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror.

Flash your headlights.

When passing is permitted, look for both headlights of the passed vehicle in your rearview mirror. Only then may you safely return to your original lane.
